Gladys Silva, 95, born August 17, 1930, in Cuba, passed away on August 2, 2026. A resident of Miami, Florida, Gladys will be remembered with deep respect and enduring affection by all who had the privilege to know her.
Throughout her life, Gladys was cherished for her gentle presence and the quiet strength she carried through changing seasons. Her resilience was evident not in grand declarations, but in the steady way she met life as it came—grounded, composed, and devoted to what mattered most.
Above all, Gladys loved her family. That love shaped the way she lived and the way she will be remembered: as a beloved mother whose care and constancy offered comfort, and whose warmth made others feel at home. Even in serious moments, her humor could surface with a well-timed remark or a knowing smile—small gifts that linger in memory.
Gladys is survived by her daughter, Virginia Carrillo.
